You originally had a fj60 with a 3B conversion you did years back then a Hilux? I think I bumped into you last year on Dumont in your Hilux or the year before. Have any pictures of your old 60 series?

Yeah that's right. Here's one on my phone of the old 60. This one came from Wenatchee with a blown engine and then I did the 3b turbo swap. There is a thread buried somewhere on the forums with some details.

A random FJ40 sitting outside a local thrift store. I wonder if its a donation??? I like the after market rear cross member. I should have just made on rather than beat my bent one back into shape.

I am scared of rejection.
Not nearly as derelict as you'd think.
frame is really clean, and looks like new springs and shocks.

Almost reminds me of my green truck when I got it. Brand new zero mile 350 installed, then it sat for 20 years filling up with water...
Yes… do it.
Heck of a lot of good parts there... not much left of the truck as a whole though.

Got a new hobby. Kind of a Land Cruiser for the water. Been a long project as I built a special deck trailer. Plans to run wilder more isolated waterways up north, like @bcsteel backyard. BTW, thanks for all your help and guidance. Never would have got sucked into this without your help. LOL. Took it out to the San Juan River for christening run. Haven’t had that much fun in a long time. Bigger motor coming, couple of mods to the deck now that I’ve had it out. Weigh scales in Duncan were broken but the boat and motor weigh less than 500 lbs so easy pull for the 12HT.

Toyota FJ40 Land Cruisers have a reputation for being tough as nails, but the steering system leaves something to be desired, to put it nicely. A gearbox at the
Either Harry Wagner or his editor should have caught the "Typo"... although some might argue it's the truth. Why do 90% of the work for a P/S conversion and leave out the P/S pump. Fresh components properly adjusted would likely also have remove most of the 33% of play that this conversion removed.

Wonder how he got that BC flag?
Schickworks Signs & Stitches in Williams Lake. He had four made for ~$50. Peeled off the ones that came with and put on his personalized ones

a 9 mm is useless anyways.

I don't even know if I own a 9mm... I certainly haven't used one in a decade or two. The only use I can think of for a 9mm would be to fit on a 10mm nut or bolt that has been rounded and then filed down a bit to fit a smaller wrench.
Couple of hours to kill. Made new snorkel screen. Much cooler than original.
